My first card is a little whimsical. When I went to StampFest in Clearwater last month, I found these marvelous "wobble springs" in one of the booths. I thought these funky chickens would look cute if they could wobble on the card.


Here is a close-up of one of the chickens, showing how they move.


I love the Tim Holtz Rays embossing folder, so I used it on my second card. When you ink it up with yellow, it looks like a sunrise!


Thanks for checking out my blog today. I hope you'll continue on to the rest of the team. Remember, the more you comment, the better your chances of winning one of this month's sets.
